The great task of ethics is to forge the character of children and people, a key subject that will later be used in life. Ethics modifies our predisposition to act correctly, it fosters virtue or “areté”, excellence as the Greeks said. In this video, philosopher Adela Cortina reflects on the importance of teaching ethics and philosophy to children, at school and at home, as a way of creating a society of values. Adela Cortina is the director of the Étnor Foundation (Ethics of Business and Business Organizations) and for years has led the contemporary analysis of political philosophy and applied ethics, claiming the importance of education in values and philosophy in school. She was the first woman to enter the Royal Academy of Moral and Political Sciences, an institution that in 2019 recognized her philosophical career with the publication of the book 'Ethics and Political Philosophy: Tribute to Adela Cortina', which brings together the reflections of fifty authors on her thought and teachings. Cortina is also the author of books such as 'The Ethical Task', 'What is Ethics Really Used For', for which she received the 2014 National Essay Award, and 'Aporophobia, the Rejection of the Poor'. #Let'sLearnTogether
